OAuth 2.0 – App Fails to Connect: "Uh oh, there's a connection problem" Error After Redirect
Hi Intuit ,
I'm integrating QuickBooks OAuth 2.0 with my app "Pay-History", and I'm encountering a persistent issue at the final step of the authorization flow.
After the user authorizes access, instead of being redirected properly, they are shown this error:
"Uh oh, there's a connection problem. Sorry, but Pay-History didn’t connect."
🔍 Here’s what I’ve checked so far:
✅ I’ve listed the redirect_uri exactly as:
in the Keys & Credentials → Settings → Redirect URIs section.
✅ I’m using development credentials (client_id and client_secret) for a sandbox app.
✅ I’m using a fresh authorization code each time.
✅ I’ve confirmed the redirect_uri used in both the authorization URL and the token POST request are identical and URL-encoded properly.
✅ My app is using the correct OAuth scopes.
🔧 Additional Info:
App Name: Pay-History
Environment: Development
Redirect URI: https://developer.intuit.com/v2/OAuth2Playground/RedirectUrl

Can anyone help me figure out why this connection error occurs even though everything appears to be configured properly?
Thanks in advance
